There has been a lot of talk about her family, various members went to prison for smuggling marihuana and Leighton was born while her mom was in jail, but she has said about this:"It makes me very nonjudgmental and open-minded. And I think it just makes me appreciate the things that I have now. She's always there for me no matter what. I swear, that woman knows everything."Leighton doesn't have to end up like her family and she has been very brave to talk about this, her mother is now a writer so let them have their past behind.
